THE RAILROAD COMMISSIONERS
Report on the Carbine Accident-Recom-
msndntion Regarding Low Bridges.

Report on the Carbine Accident-Recom-
msndation Regarding Low Bridges.
The Board of Railroad commissioners
report in the matter of the fatal accident
to James Carbine, Il brakeman on the
Bennington and Rutland railroad, near
Wallingford, August 3, that he was last
seen alive by the trainmen, just after
leaving Wallugford, when he was sitting
on the top of charcoal car. He was
first missed when the train reached Dan
by, some miles beyond, and, upon subse
quent search, was found dead under the
Wallingford bridge. The car upon which
he sat when last seen was considerably
higher and wider than an ordinary freight
car, while the bridge appears to be the
lowest on this railroad. From these facts
it is believed that he was struck by the
bridge, sustaining injuries which caused
immediate death.
This bridge where the accident occurred
was built before the passage of the act OF
1872 prescribing the height and width
of bridges, and is accordingly such a one
as the railroad company has right, un-
der the law, to maintain, and this Board
Is without authority to recommend that
1t be raised AS it ought to be in the inter.
est of greater safety to the lives of train
men.
The Board however, recommends to
this railroad company that IL cause such
device to be placed at the proper distance
from the ends of this bridge as shall give
warning to brakeman on its trains of their
approach to IL, until such time as the same
snail need repairs or rebuilding, when it
shall he raised in accordance with law

traOrdinary accident occurred near West

tact with his head and neck, and com
